Forced out of AIG in 2005 after accusations of improper accounting, Greenberg has denied any wrongdoing and has said that the documents would help clear his name, according to the article.

An AIG spokesman confirmed the court decision and said the company would appeal it.

The transactions in question led to a costly restatement and settlement with regulators.
